Greece's Reconstruction

Recently Greece has spent €600-million to replace homes and livestock lost in devastating forest fires 2 years ago that killed 77 people. 11 percent of the homes have been rebuilt thus far. "Nobody can expect homes to be torn down and be rebuilt in areas that lack the necessary construction crew in two years," public works ministry general secretary Dimosthenis Katsigiannis told a news conference. A state recovery fund which has more than €205-million in donations has received 1,425 requests from owners of damaged and destroyed homes. So my question to everyone is how does this make you feel?
